 * Same problem here. I disabled creation of year and month folders and used chmod
   777 for /uploads and it works now, but I think it’s not safe to use 777…
 * Any advice?

 * I think it’s not an optimal solution, so I’d like to hear from somebody with 
   more experience than I have, but that’s a way to get it working…
